India Rising: Rural India has more Crorepati(10 millionaires) density than Urban India; Kolkata beats Bangalore & Hyderabad put together
By Angsuman Chakraborty, Gaea News NetworkWednesday, September 14, 2005
According to NCAER survey Delhi and Mumbai continue to be the major centres of wealth in India, accounting for half of the roughly 20,000 crorepati (owner of 10 million Rs. or more) households in India.
Kolkata, often thought as a has-been city, has more crorepati households than Bangalore and Hyderabad put together. 180 households of every million households in Kolkata are crorepati compared with 113 for every million in Bangalore.
Rajesh Shukla, senior fellow at NCAER, says the biggest myth the survey shatters is that the country’s wealth resides in cities. Rural India has a larger crorepati density than urban India.
In Haryana, for instance, the number of rural households with annual incomes above Rs 1 crore is more than the number of crorepati urban homes. In fact, with 482 crorepatis, rural Haryana beats Bangalore, which has only 137 crorepatis. In Punjab there are almost as many crorepatis in the villages and small towns (those with less than 5 lakh population) than in the bigger cities.
350 of every million households in small towns have a Rs 1-crore-plus annual income, considerably higher than the proportion in metros like Kolkata, Bangalore and Hyderabad.
This is a sure sign of India rising (again). Rural India controls the fate of this country. Unless the poor, the down-trodden are brought on equal footing with the rest, this country cannot rise. They are the heart and soul of India. No amount of cyber-riches can remedy that.

Hi, I found your article to be conflicting on the criteria you have used. “Income” & “owner of 10 million Rs. or more” are two different things. Please clarify what is the real definition to be used here. Thanks. |

What ever college u guys are talking abt in china…its pathetic to note that u cant even communicate in english adequately…let alone in chinese! its sad to note that you are studying medicine in chinese when you cant even speak or write proper english…i would advice you to improve your english especially if you are planning to work in india or any other country as most of the books are in english…if you are planning to practise in china …i have nothing more to say! |

I am Satisfied sending my son in Luzhou Medical College. I send my Son in Year 2004 to Study MBBS in Luzhou Medical College thorugh Speed International (P.) Ltd., Nepal. From the very begining I am very much satisfied with the college. My son Arphaan never complained about anything related to Luzhou Medical College. Also he got Scholarship in First Year. In the begining weeks he had complain about food, but gradually that also he stop complaining. Now he is adjsuted totally. Leaving home, father and mother every kid always have some prob. But its ok,,, his study is good and teaching faculty are good tooo, all are experienced and caring to the international students. I got an oppurtunity to meet the delegation headed by President of Luzhou Medical College. During the meet they were very coardial and hopefull for the international students. The FAO director knew the name of the every students, and was very concerned about the syllabus difference between Nepal and China, After there visit they have improoved the syllabus according to Nepal Medical Council requirement. I met and talk to other guardians too, coz’ My son studying there, they are also very much satisfied with Luzhou Medical College, and there Son Performance. I would like to thank the Luzhou Medical College management for caring and supporting our kids in there college and in there country. |

You need to get a hold of NCAER survey report. I found the summarized information from The Times of India newspaper print edition and a local bengali daily - Anadabazar Patrika. |
